True happiness by Barbara Rozenkruis (Taken from the new book/ Teachings for the new Era)

There is a lesson to be learned: happiness will not become a part of your experience if you just focus on material wants and needs. Society has set up a system of rewards and competition that goes beyond the short- lived satisfaction of material goods. These include expectations, fantasies about titles, social recognition, status, and political power. This is all wrapped up in a package called self-fulfilment. Facing social pressure, people spend their lives exhausting their bodies and minds to chase after these goals. In this race, human beings have allowed the creation of many schisms and so much separation. Because of this, they can no longer experience their true path, worthwhile gifts, and cosmic processes of growth. People are then separated from inner guidance and all the support that Earth and the cosmos offer so effortlessly to all living beings. When people do not allow themselves to eat the fruits of joy, truth and purpose that grow in them, and to experience peace and expansion, they spend their lives following other people’s demands and social expecta- tions. They miss out on experiencing the power within. In a society where nearly everybody is dominated by somebody else’s mind, we are all wondering about the purpose of this existence and where it is leading us. Modern societies have perfected the mechanisms of making people feel unnecessary. There is a powerful and hypnotic lead that moves from one mind to another. This ties all up with invisible knots, creating controlling waterfalls of thoughts and theories moving into the net and into the mind. From this, illusionary realities are formed that enhance previous weak- nesses and limitations to show us the “right” diversion. Supporting the hypnotic state that alienates people and makes them invisible has become the “purpose” of humanity, a global religion of doom. I see a way of demolishing this. We need to communicate our truth, build pure and loving communities, connect to cosmic wisdom, and let it transform us into a fertile land, a waterfall where humans can gather and drink awakening This fire that we call Life is too strong, too powerful for human minds to comprehend. However, it is just perfect for igniting growth and transformation for our whole being. The power of life is a sacred pattern of unbroken unity flowing effortlessly inside all living beings, supporting all truth about their purpose and path. Once we have experienced the power of life in us and we have accepted our true effortless path, we will not question life again. Clarity will return, and the flow of life will become the only truth we know.
